MyHeartBeats4U Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Is there any way to ban the spammer(s). There seems to be alot of posts about nothing. They just ramble on & none of it makes any sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenegadeRoss Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 I dont have the power to ban them so all i can do is just edit/delete the posts that they make, I have noticed them appearing with increasing regularity though When you see one making a post, please report it.

Ross Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 It's happening across most, possibly all, vBulletin boards. Noticed the same usernames posting spam on other sites also powered by vBulletin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 These things are really annoying me now. There's one that has made 20+ posts and it hasn't been banned. Deleting their posts does nothing mods - they just make new posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashhh Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 These things are really annoying me now. There's one that has made 20+ posts and it hasn't been banned. Deleting their posts does nothing mods - they just make new posts but which one are you talking about? link/pm us. we ban them all the time. sorry for missing one.

777 Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 They're just so annoying and they bother me so, How can I proceed to read the rest of the thread with these bots?! lulzer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 but which one are you talking about? link/pm us. we ban them all the time. sorry for missing one. I did pm Alyssa about this bot, and she said it had been marked as spam, but it's still posting..? I don't know what "marked as spam" meant, as I've moderated vBulletin forums before and never heard of that term. The bot's profile is here and it has been posting for the last 10 days =/ Also, while we've got your attention can you check out this forum idea? I think Ross has been trying to get it to your attention, there was a lot of interest from people about the idea =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_hymn Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 I reported the same one 3 times and it hasn't been banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komomaan Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Maybe you should add an extra question when registering beside the letters and numbers. I don't know... maybe a Paramore related one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 It just looks like it's the same one bot posting all the time, the account just needs banning/deleting. But a Paramore question is a good idea (y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
